A MIRACLE SAVES
FRUIT CROP FROM
DAMAGING I
By ono of those miraculous fronks ot
nature Medford and the valley escaped
killing frost last night and this mor
ning, much to the Joy of the orchnr
dlsts, gardeners, business men and
pol generally. And further good
news la that showers tor tonight and
Thursday Is the prediction issued by
the weather bureau at San Francisco
for this vicinity, which if it proves
true means cloudiness and absence of
froet :
Last night was one of worry, not
only for the orchard men but for Floyd
Young, the frost expert, and County
Agent Cate who Is assisting him in bis
frost protection work, as weather con
ditions were such that it was impossi
ble to dope It out nearly all night as
to whether there would be frost. Mr.
Young remained on duty until 4 a. m.
today before he felt safe in predicting
there would be no frost
"It was the strangest weather night
in nil my experience." said Mr. Young.
"It teemed almost Impossible for
hard frost to be avoidod, yet it re
mained cloudy most of the night when
If It cleared up for a short time the
frost would surely come."
"The frost passing us by last night
and this morning was surely an act of
ProTidenee." said County Agent Cate
tociay.
By 10 o'clock last night the tempera
ture was down to 34.4, the atmosphere
was very chilly and It was partially
clear, and every one felt that a frost
would surely come. Tut the tempera
ture did not go any lower all night or
this morning. Many orchardisU re
mained up all night ready to summon
their smudging crews on a second's
notioe to light up the fires. I

eia. April (The Associated Press)
There- has been no baby famine in
the Volga Valley. Even- during the
six months just passed, when hun
dreds ot thousands ot adults and
children have died, he stork has
made a valiant fight to keep apace
with the Reaper. Accurate Htatistic
are, just as lacking on the birth rate
as on the death rate, but an observer
in the famine districts finds on every
hand evidence , that the peasant
mothers have been fruitful even
when the land was not.
The Bamara district, despite the
ravages of famine among children
laat autumn, literally swarms with
Infanta.
Thousands of new-born babies,
thrust upon famine-stricken commu
nities by undernourished mothers
probably have died within a few days
or weeks after birth. Others are tiny
living skeletons with drawn faces like
old men. But most of them whom

Tha Crater club after enjoying their
semi-monthly feast last evening pro
ceeded to devour all the candidates
for office in Jackson county as desert,
and to blow off steam generally In
the way of jollity and a good time.
Besides the candidates who before the
fuu was over, felt pretty well extin
guished, the club had a number of
other distinguished guests. The hosts
in their Craterish way. In an endeav
or to make all the guests feel per
fect'y at heme game them nicknames
by which they will be known hence
forth in club circles.
And the way in which they treatod
those poor unsuspecting candidates
it was a shame. After feeding them
f ne and getting them to feel that, the
Crater's club was one great crewfe of
good fellows, bubbling over with hos
p'tallty, they proceeded to make bur
itsque campaign speeches for them
and read burlesque platforms, with
out letting one ot them utter a word.
They were only permitted to sit there
and listen to these slanderous utter
ances. As each candidate was ca'led for a
speech and to outline his platform, a
Crater's club member arose and did
the act for him, while the crowd roar
ed with laughter at the keen, witty
sallies cf the speaker, while the can
didate sheepishly grinned and wished
he were miles awav. Each candi
date's speech was followed by an ap
propriate solo sung by a Crater 'a club
member, sort of rubbing it In, if that
ere possible.
It was delightful entertainment for
all mit the candidates, each of whom
enjoyed it hugely when his oppo
nents for nomination were placed on
the rack. The only thing that marred
the pleasure of the night was when
the mayor of Prospect was called on
for a vocal solo and had the nerve to
go through with It. The candidates
and other guests had expected to en
dure some unpleasant Things when
they came, but never dreamed such
an infliction would be Imposed on
tbem. There's a limit, even to a
Crater's club frolic.
Interspersed with the entertain
ment) the Club managed to transact
some serious business, including the
decision to order several hundred
thousands of letter heads bearing a
fine colored picture of Crater I-ake,
which will be disposed ot among the
business men of the city, and thus go
over the United States advertising
Medford.' Crater Lake and the Cra
ter's club.
H. Chandler Egan gave a rousing
talk on the necessity of Medford and
vicinity establishing a large golf club
with adequate links, and of the im
measurable value such links would be
for this vicinity both In an advertis
ing and business way. Mr. Egan also
told several stories which made a
j great hit. .
CONDITIONS N FAR
EAST DESCRIBED BY
gion and elsewhere, seemed plump
and rosy and happy.
Asked why the children lived and
the adults died, a bearded old peas
ant with clear, honest eyes hlnlng
, from his weathered face said it. was
very simple.
J "When the children cry for food,
we give it to them, even if it is the
last w have." he eald.
STATE CHAIRMAN
J. J. Handfiiker of Portland, ehnir
man ot the state Near Kant Relief
association, addressed the Chamber
of Commerce forum at the forum
luncheon nt the Ilotol Medford this
noon on the subject ot "Orvgoniam
1 Have Met in tlfe Far East."
Mr. Ilun.sacker told of the Work
being done by Oregon nnd Oregon
peoplo in the Near Earn and also
covered the subject of the desperate
famine condition there, lie remind
ed' his audience that the inhabitants
of the Near East defended 'he Baku
oil ficMtt aKAinst the t'crmuns dur
ing the war, so competently th,at they
were unable to secure the oil needed
to operate submarines and thus
ended the war months before it
would have otherwise ended.
loiter, however, he was forced to
act in a Bimllar but more strained cir
cumstance where 20 children must
be selected to live out of a total of
S0.
Thp speaker also told of the won
derful and untiring efforts of Ore
gon men and women to bring relief
to the starving inhabitants and ot
thed isappolntments sustained by
them and others In the work when
hundreds ot ragged mothers with
naked children apply for morsel of
brend and when they are unable to
give it because of Its non-existence.
Many other interesting circum
stances were outlined and in closing
he asked the help of the Medford
Chamber ft Commerce in carrying
out the work.

f NAT LAST NIGHT
Fight tans of the city and valley
pronounced the smoker at the Nat
lt night, the best ever given lit
these parts, it was the first smoker
of several months, and was under
the auiK-es of the Medford Boxing
commission, with Hi n Dixon aa man
ager. ' The main event between Baby
Illuo and Jack Burns was a fast and
scientific exhibition. between two
high clai performers. They were
alle to circulate around the same
ling without stumbling over each
other nnd both proved to have class.
The Hint few rounds were tame. At
the end of the fifth round a iiivmber
of the boxing commlnKlon stood up on
his hind legs and Intimated thut the
frucaM was not what it should be.
Thl roused the lie of Baby Blue,
who went after Burn hammer and
tonus. The final round the little
fellows showed a terrific burst of
speed and both were tired at the
flnlah. The bout made a hit with
the fans and thfy applauded the
draw decision.
The six-round affair between Uo
men - Haiten and the Idaho Wildcat
wH a halrialNlng encounter. Romeo1
Im pi'olwltly the homvllcMt man In
the worhl nnd a veteran of scores of
battles, in uud out of tho ring. He
took the hardest licks the Wildcat
could offer, and laughrd. Usually
when the Wildcat lata a fie upon the
thin he crumples, but Romeo's Jaw
is made nut of the same stuff as
wfe. The men fought with one
hand free, and did sums wild execu
tion in the clinches. It was called a
draw by the refsree.
The opener between Jess Ingram
nnd Kid I'lckles was not very thril
ling, and was also Vailed a draw.
If the boxing commlsNlnn always
presents aa well balanced a card as
it did last night, they will always
have a houmi full.
